Monstrous amounts of fat in an intriguing game of the body. Japan at its best.
There are only 6 tournaments a year, and sumo wrestlers train and live a Spartan life for these few opportunities to excel. When I happened to be in Tokyo during such a tournament, I directly took the chance to see a day of the sport. I went to the Kokugikan arena. Because of a typical misunderstanding which is not at all uncommon in Japan unless you speak Japanese or are fortunate enough to meet someone who speaks English very well, I was ushered in directly upon buying the tickets. The arena was almost completely empty. Since the ticket said that leaving the premises would result in the ticket being invalid, I had to stay inside. Quite soon though, the juniors started their matches. From then on, the game became increasingly interesting.
